Soros Looks Ill

DEMOCRAT money man George Soros looks ill.

At his November 13, 2008 testimony before Rep. Henry A. Waxman’s House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, a photographer captured Mr. Soros looking more frail and sickly than this reporter can ever recall seeing him. Soros turned 78 in August.

Judging by this photo, Mr. Soros’ celebrated vitality appears spent. Old age has overtaken him with startling swiftness. Sooner rather than later, I suspect, Mr. Soros will find himself in a realm where money and power no longer matter.

In my writings, I have cast harsh judgments on Mr. Soros. But my opinion is not the one that counts. In the end, Mr. Soros will stand before a better and wiser judge than me. He is in my prayers.
